How do you wear your hair???

I just finished my first clinical which brings me to my topic. Hair. I have crazy hair. Kinky, curly, almost spiral curls, all natural. I cannot wear it down due to the fact it is thick. NO matter if i use hair gel, the dryer my hair gets the bigger it gets. It could be worst...but not by much. I just feel extremely bored always putting it into a bun, french twist, or some other made up style (actually lack of style), to keep it off my collar while working in the hospital. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could style, cut, or shave it all off, to help get me through the next two years??? How does everyone else style their hair? Any new do's I am unaware of? I looked in the "hairstyle" books, but I could not find the section on styles for the person with Don King/Diana Ross kind of hair. In fact if my shin tone were the right color I would begin to wonder if I am not the love child between Don King and Diana Ross? HHHHMMMMM? Maybe I should call my parents and ask them if there is any information they have not told me. It is funny, the other 5 children in my family have beautifully straight hair! So help me out, I have a 5:00 appointment to have something done to my "ratsmess" (my bother's nickname for my hair). I could use everyones help.

Last semester my hair was like 3 inches past my shoulders and I had bangs. I put it up in a neat messy bun. lol Then I wore a simple black plastic headband to keep my bangs back. This summer when it was hot and I was in a mood I cut it all off, so now I have to figure something else out.

I lasted 2 semesters of pony tails, buns, and twists before I finally chopped it off! I love it now. So easy to do and maintain and I dont have to worry about it falling into a nasty wound or poop :)

take a razor, put the guard at 1 or 1.5 and it's just SOOO easy to keep it off your collar. That's how I do it. But what do I know. I'm a guy... hahah.
